Hey everyone. In case you missed it, look! New Main Page layout! Shiny.


If you want to have your work featured in this box up the top here, get in touch with {{ut|the dark lord trombonator|trom}}. The content changes every day, so if you want your writing to be the first thing everyone sees when they visit Bulbapedia, pick a topic and put together a few fun facts our readers may be interested in. This is a great way to get involved with the Bulbapedia community.
Effective immediately, new requirements regarding the use of four templates that are extremely important to the continued improvement of Bulbapedia have been mandated:


If you really want to get into the community, why not apply for a staff role? Bulbapedia, Bulbanews, and the Archives are [[n:Bulbawikis_start_staff_recruitment_drive|currently hiring]]. If you've been around for a while, have a handle on the rules and a clear head, then check out the job descriptions on Bulbanews and fill out an application form. We look forward to hearing from you.
:''When using the templates {{template|Split}}, {{template|Merge}}, {{template|Move}}, and {{template|DiscussDelete}} to nominate articles for administrative action, a section outlining the rationale for the nomination '''must''' be added to the article's talk page. Nominations lacking an outlined rationale will no longer be considered.''
 
Happy editing!


An outlined rationale helps to expedite administrative action, and helps to prevent confusion and misunderstandings that can result in mistakes. Keep in mind, the staff aren't mind readers, and not every nomination reason is obvious.

Effective immediately, new requirements regarding the use of four templates that are extremely important to the continued improvement of Bulbapedia have been mandated:

When using the templates {{Split}}, {{Merge}}, {{Move}}, and {{DiscussDelete}} to nominate articles for administrative action, a section outlining the rationale for the nomination must be added to the article's talk page. Nominations lacking an outlined rationale will no longer be considered.

An outlined rationale helps to expedite administrative action, and helps to prevent confusion and misunderstandings that can result in mistakes. Keep in mind, the staff aren't mind readers, and not every nomination reason is obvious.
